Tyndalized milk of goat, cow, and buffalo was found to be a potential substitute for fetal bovine serum (FBS) in the medium for the cultivation of Leishmania donovani promastigotes. The numbers (means) of promastigotes reached 2.6 x 10(7), 2.3 x 10(7), and 2.1 x 10(7)/ml, respectively, in the medium supplemented with 10% milk of goat, cow, and buffalo, in comparison to 1.9 x 10(7)/ml in the con...

This study investigated the levels of the antibiotic tetracycline contained in cow milk, goat milk, butterfat, soft cheese and yoghurt samples. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) standard methods were used for the detection and quantification of tetracycline in 40 dairy products samples. All the analysed samples contained residues of tetracycline antibiotics. The mean tetracycline re...

The aim of the study was to compare the compositions of the fecal microbiotas of infants fed goat milk formula to those of infants fed cow milk formula or breast milk as the gold standard. Pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA gene sequences was used in the analysis of the microbiotas in stool samples collected from 90 Australian babies (30 in each group) at 2 months of age. Beta-diversity analysis of tot...

Inadequate Ca intakes are a concern for global public health. In France, most dietary Ca is provided by dairy products: milks, fermented milks (mostly yogurts), dairy desserts and cheeses. The present dairy database (n 837) included milks (n 101), fermented milks, yogurts and other fresh dairy products (n 326), desserts (n 162) and a wide variety of cheeses (n 248). Energy and nutrient values w...

Methods We examined 50 formulae fed infants 1-12 months old with food allergy. The examination included a collection of allergy history, clinical evaluation and specific methods – the measurement of the coprofiltrate levels of total IgE and allergen-specific IgE to the cow milk protein and casein. The level of total IgE, cow and goat milk proteins IgE allergen-specific antibodies in coprofiltra...

kurdish cheese is semi-firm cheese which has been traditionally manufactured from whole raw cow or sheep milk, in the east of iran. it is ripened in goat’s skin bags. the microbial diversity of kordish cheese originates from natural microbiota present in the raw milk and its unique organoleptic properties have made it excellent among other traditional cheeses in iran. this study has been conduc...

Goats provide an essential food supply in the form of milk and meat. Goat has distinct qualities, but it shares many similarities with human bovine regarding its nutritional therapeutic benefits. Because their different compositions, goat cow products could have tastes, nutrients, medicinal effects. Modification composition aid determining viability processing methods. Comparatively, goat's hig...

The nucleotide sequences of the cow &2 and a4 globin genes were determined. The sequences were 95% identical. These genes arose via a four-gene block duplication that also gave rise to the bovine fetal (y) and adult (p) genes. Their deduced amino acid sequences are unlike any previously reported fetal or adult globins; rather, comparison to other mammalian globin genes indicates that they are e...

The authenticity of milk and milk products is important and has extended health, cultural, and financial implications. Current analytical methods for the detection of milk adulteration are slow, laborious, and therefore impractical for use in routine milk screening by the dairy industry. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is a rapid biochemical fingerprinting technique that could b...
